Another e-mail from info@barackobama.com hit my inbox yesterday. The subject: Sarah Palin.
It begins: "Right now, Sarah Palin is on a highly publicized, nationwide book tour, attacking President Obama and his plan for health reform at every turn."
The mail goes on to say "It's dangerous. Remember, this is the person who coined the term "Death Panels" -- and opened the flood gates for months of false attacks by special interests and partisan extremists."
"Whatever lie comes next will be widely covered by the media, then constantly echoed by right-wing attack groups and others who are trying to defeat reform."
"So we're setting a big goal: $500,000 in the next week to help push back against Sarah Palin and her allies.....We need to be prepared. And we're counting on you help. Can you chip in $5?"
So it has come to this: a sitting president soliciting donations for counter-attack ads on a former VP nominee hockey mom that most of the mainstream media rediculed in the last election. If her claims are so outrageous, why bother spending the money to respond? Maybe because a lot of people are listening to her, and many of them might just agree with what she is saying.

“Anybody else just keep getting a strange desire to cry? I feel like I am in mourning.”
Read my signature line. Now, more than ever, I want to SCREAM.
Doesn't the POTUS already posses the 'bully pulpit'? Why the need to raise cash? And besides, isn't it the Veep's job to act as the political bulldog?
Paging Mr Biden to the white courtesy phone ... Oh Mr Biden, Mr Biden ...
I believe it was actually Baucus. "There are no death panels in this legislation. That's an absolute falsehood. But we're going to take them out, anyway".... Or some such nonsense.
Stupid waste of money like this, repeatedly for the past 10 months.
And now they say they have to raise taxes to pay for the war.
The liberal is continually angry, as only a self-important man can be, with his civilization, his culture, his country and his folks back home. His is an infantile world view. At the core of a liberal is the spoiled child -- miserable, as all spoiled children are, unsatisfied, demanding, ill-disciplined, despotic and useless. Liberalism is a philosophy of sniveling brats.

And nothing will surprise me...
I mean...hey, don't want Health Insurance...you could possibly go to jail! And Obama and Pelosi...think that is just fine.....
What's next...mandating I have only two vehicles per household...? And if I have or want too many...I could go to jail!?!?
I need Prozac
Personally I expect FASCISM.
What’s become of P. J. O’Rourke...anyway?
Unless home schooled, I wouldn't expect Youngin's to learn of it with purity.
Well- now we get a good look at what the O in Obama really means.
OBSESSED!
The man is a freak, he can NOT accept or tolerate that someone says something he doesn’t agree with.
Princess Thin-skin.
He makes Nixon look balanced, my god he is a mental midget.
It’s not enough to have the bully pulpit as POTUS?
And she'll do it without ever actually running for President. This is hilarious. Obama looks dumber every day.
He’s been battling cancer since last... I’m unsure how he’s doing.
Someone needs to do a $5 donation, with a false name (like in 2008) just to see if they have the Identity system shut down (making all donations untraceable).
But PLEASE, only one person.
I didn't know that.......
Sorry to hear.......
Sadly, our money was just used to make a Louisiana Purchase, via Mary Landreau (Not sure how to spell her last name)

Mister President, why would you need a million dollars to put out ads slapping down this private citizen who disagrees with you?
Yep exactly If you disagree with OBAMA you are labled DANGEROUS and a LIAR....
America on the path of Dictatorship.
